Come to think of it, private might be right anyway. Of course one may subclass and override, but that is only because the private methods and classes does not exists (well, they aren't visible anyway) in the subclass. If the intention is to create a class that should only be accessible from your code and never used by subclasses, I would go for private.

Anyway, the modifiers in pike are somewhat confusing if you try to apply knowledge from some other language to them...

private is almost never right, since you can inherit and modify then.
